It's always good to hear from the happy users. Although my one year anniversary isn't untill Feb, I'd have to say that my satisfaction level is very high indeed. I was commenting to my wife a few days ago that buying the DS was a great decision, even though it was hard to put the money down for it. I've never spent that much on camera equipment before. She readily agreed.
I've a way to go to catch up to you on the 9000+ images in a year, but I'm with you on the 2 rolls of film. I was hoping to buy a portable storage unit like yours, but my flash died on the weekend. The Sigma is now on order. dk On 11/8/05, Fred Widall <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Its coming up on one year since I ordered my *istDS so I thought > a retrospective might be in order. > > Images captured: 9000+ (equivalent to 375 rolls of 24 exposure film !). > > Rolls of real film processed: 2. > > Rolls of real film processed in preceeding year: 77 > > Coldest Temperature used in: -35C (Ontario in Feb) > > Hottest Temperature used in: +45C (Abu Simbel, Egypt in July) > > Problems with camera: Very few (mostly operator error) > > Best accessory: PD7X with 40Gb drive for image storage on the road. > > Overall Satisfaction level: Very high > > Its been a fun first year and I'm sure future years will be equally > enjoyable. > > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > Fred Widall, > Email: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > URL: http://www.ist.uwaterloo.ca/~fwwidall > Images: http://www.flickr.com/photos/fwwidall/ > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > >
